Crop Loans Extended
To encourage producers to take advantage of all available on-farm storage space, USDA's Agricultural Staoilization and Conservation Service recently authorized a 12-month extension of the maturity date on price support loans for 1985 and 1986 crop feed grains, wheat, soybeans and rye.
County ASCS official Muriel Park said the extension will also give additional marketing flexibility to farmers who have outstanding loans on barley, corn, oats, rye, sorghum, soybeans or wheat. "Storage costs for the additional 12-month loan will be paid on all crops except soybeans, said Park. Storage will be paid upon request, but no eailier than 30 days before the original loan maturity date she said. The annual storage rates are 26.5 cents per bushel for wheat, barley, rye and corn; 47.32 cents per hundredweight for grain sorghum; and 20 cents per bushel for oats.
Under the ASCS price support loan program, farmers borrow money using their crops as collateral. When the loan matures, producers either repay the loan plus interest or forfeit the grain to the Commodity Credit Corporation. The ASCS official said requests for loan extensions should be submitted in writlnq to the county ASCS office no earlier than 60 days before the loan maturity date. Loans may be repaid any time during the l?-month period.
